Description

As follow on from #19, this issue encompasses making the export feature generic through an interface like ISchemeExporter so we can export in more formats than .ini

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the current export implementation from issue #19 and design an interface (e.g., ISchemeExporter) that abstracts the export format. Then implement a concrete exporter for .ini and potentially others.
